Was curious to understand the original Japanese version of this line, emphasis added to the relevant portion:
> it's a clean, modern RISC architecture without all the legacy crud of MIPS
Particularly the word "crud", and its implied denigration. Indeed, amusingly, the original Japanese translates:
> but I think it is a sophisticated RISC ISA with some negative legacies gone
- renox 4y agoWhat's funny is that one man 'crud' is another regret: MIPS had arithmetic operations which detected integer overflow..
